Game doesn't start MacOS Catalina

I downloaded the macOS TLOPO launcher v1.6 and have downloaded the game. Yet after signing in, my launcher checks for updates, says it "launching the game", then returns to the log in menu without transitioning at all. I have tried waiting for it to respond and have searched for hidden windows where the game may have launched, but it never does launch. I have also tried repeatedly logging in, where it sometimes makes the launcher disappear as if it is launching, and then the launcher pops back up and after 5-6 times it tells me I am trying to log in too fast. If there is any way I can fix this or if you need further instruction into my problem I would appreciate any help I can get. Here is a picture of the launcher if it helps at all!

Ahoy!

This might be caused by a change made by apple in regard to third-party applications using the keyboard. TLOPO needs to have access to input monitoring in order for the game to map your key presses to the game control it's associated with, such as walking, opening your inventory, swinging a cutlass, etc.

To fix this, please do the following:

- Open System Preferences.
- Click Security and Privacy.
- Click Privacy, then click lock and enter your password.
- Click Input Monitoring.
- Click the +
- Select the The Legend of Pirates Online from Applications.
- Confirm by checking the box.
- Open the launcher and start the game.
 
I tried doing this just now and it did not open TLOPO on my computer. I have also tried restarting my computer to see if that would register the changes, but TLOPO will still not run on my computer. If there are any different solutions to this problem please let me know!

Hi again. I was searching through the package contents of the application and noticed a console log for the game. I ran the launcher by pressing the login button and when it tried to connect it gave me this bit of information mostly because it doesn't recognize this device as a valid device to run this game on. Is there anything from this bit of information that would help resolve this issue?

I did what the code said and changed the bin to zsh from bash. It is still giving the error. Could it not be reading the openGl graphics card?

Okay this is promising. We will be reaching out to you in a PM to see how we can further debug this with you.

What version of macOS are you running on?

Please give us an update on the thread if you get this sorted out. I play on both systems. But haven't logged in on the Mac in a while.
No rush however.
